assessment of present day and future sea level rise at the Dutch coast : Zeespiegelstijging langs de Nederlandse kust en de regionale bestuurlijke consequenties

In this report an assessment of present day and future sea level rise is given, to provide a scientific background in the related public debates. We start with a discussion on the present-day sea level rise acceleration. Subsequently, we discuss the consistency between sea level rise observations and future sea level projections along the North Sea coast, followed by a discussion on different future sea level projections and their interpretations.
